IFI is pioneering the concept of having Illinois dads make a promise (not a pledge) to be more actively engaged in the educational lives of their child(ren). Each dad gets two cards. Dads are asked to sign and date the cards, give one to their child and keep the other as a reminder of his promise. It's a simple but powerful idea to enhance educational outcomes and strength child-father relationships.

IFI will send you four wallet-size promise cards at no cost. All you need to do is send an email to: promisecards@4fathers.orgwith your name and address. Send a testimonial of how you're making use of the cards and IFI will send you another four cards.
